House conservatives to unveil ObamaCare fix

The conservative Republican Study Committee (RSC) is preparing to unveil legislation that would replace ObamaCare with a new set of healthcare reforms.

A spokesman for RSC Chairman Rep. Steve Scalise (R-La.) confirmed Friday that members of the group will introduce their measure after the August recess.

"Chairman Scalise and the RSC Health Care Working Group are drafting legislation to repeal ObamaCare and replace it with a conservative alternative that fixes the problems in our healthcare system without the harmful taxes and mandates in the President's law," Stephen Bell said in a statement to The Hill. "The timetable for rollout is slated for this fall."

House Republicans have held 40 votes to repeal, defund or dismantle the Affordable Care Act but have struggled to coalesce around an alternative plan.
